In Which Civilization has a SimCity moment, a bad omen

Hello there, my good friend, kind reader of this post! Happy Friday! Hopefully another beautiful day, maybe we should indeed give it the benefit of the doubt! How are you, my friend? How have you been? I have not write much these days, alas... It is that thing of having some stuff in my head but not being able to take them out to my satisfaction. I mean, we could as well be seeing the collapse of the Civilization franchise, for example. I think I wrote it before here, that I am not optimistic about this title, that their heart (if at all) is in the wrong place for this entry... I could smell the miasma, but now it is clear: reality is even worse than the predictions and projections of before. The Steam consensus, this morning, got as low as 33%, an absolute catastrophic number for the franchise, it is a snapshot of the bad User Interface, the lack of customisation on the game, its mechanics ossifying the main building, or ot is what is implied on even the milder of reviews. I did not h...

In which I say once again: Happy July 4th. And there is a lot I don’t know

Good morning to you, dear friend, reader of this post, and happy Tuesday. I come today with a post to celebrate 4th of July, one that I had in mind for a while. But, a conversation with my excellent friend Tibor made me rethink what I'd write, this is the final result. 



There is a lot I don’t know. I feel ashamed of myself for having the illusion sometimes I know more than I actually do. When I write, in special, I seem more confident than what I am in fact. There is a lot I don't know about. I wrote a post on my Instagram about July the 4th, a day in which my american friends celebrate independence. He corrected what I wrote there. We are both royalists with no taste for republics and much preference for the natural order of monarchies. And I in fact was a bit harsher on king George the Third as I would have preferred to have been. He was no tyrant, many faults that the colonists complained about, were the doings of the bickerings of parliamentary life. Such is the evil of politics. I rewrote parts of it with the new knowledge he provided me, but I still feel bad for falling into propaganda. Same goes with Brazil I suppose. Our monarchy was beautiful and the evil republic agitators took it away from us, it was such a monstrous deed that they had to rewrite a whole fake story, create a whole artifical mythos, to replace what they wanted gone. The ones pushing for a collectivist agenda are to be feared, and even combated. I was going to say those on the left, but I clearly can see many of the right wingers also have agendas I don't agree with, even am against. Such as protecting national industry, for example... This is why I like much of libertarianism, they break away from many dicotomies, at their best. At the end of the day, all I strive is for the truth. I do believe 4th of July is to be celebrated, but more as a grassroots movement to restore something, than as an awful evil revolution to break away from the past and into the "new". Certainly there were founding fathers that even cheered at the french revolution, and they deserve our question marks, but there are those whom saw goodness in the natural regime, so America was from the start born into those many different groups, no wonder took so long for the country to develop a national identity. It is beautiful, I believe, to have people being able to even question if they should've become independent from Britain in the first place. Today in my country, if you question publicly, as a figure of celebrity, the "sacred institutions of democracy", you can end up in jail. Oh, how much I hate and spit on the face of this "sacred democracy", that is taking us away from what we want, and throwing us at the guillotine of Venezuela. The left is to blame, but also, EVEN MORE SO, the right. Why? Because they were oportunistic, they were not having the values of Mrs. Thatcher in mind, for example. They were corrupt and filthy. The left is worse? Oh, for sure, but I'm not on the left. I ought to denounce my colleagues more vigorously than my enemies. There is a lot I don't know, and yet, recognizing all that was said, I think July the fourth deserve a celebration. The brave american people deserve our awe and praise for all that liberty allowed them to achieve, in the past. Today, as the country descends into the tyranny worthy of a latin america irrelevant country, much to my melancholy, we pray to God, that save the country while it is time. Throw away the evils of socialism once and for all. Let them burn, burn on the fields of fire, as Mrs. Rand would have prefered as well, I reckon. What else is there to be said?
